Europe's environment 2015: Future
prosperity depends on bolder steps
in policy, knowledge, investments
and innovation
Europe's environment and climate
policies have delivered substantial
benefits, improving the environment
and quality of life, while driving
innovation, job creation and growth.
Despite these gains, Europe still faces
a range of persistent and growing
environmental challenges. Addressing
them will require fundamental changes
in the systems of production and
consumption that are the root cause of
environmental problems.
These are some of the key messages
from the European Environment
Agency's five-yearly assessment 'The
European environment – state and
outlook 2015' (SOER 2015), published
today. SOER 2015 is an integrated
assessment of Europe's environment.
It also includes assessments and data
at global, regional and country levels,
as well as cross-country comparisons.

benefits.
